Islanders Made Courageous Stand Al Glace:Bay
The Islanders wrote another courageous chapter into Maritime hockey history 4 last Wednegday night when they played the Glace Bay Miners in Glace Bay with only a handful of players.
y The Charlottel.own Club. due to car troublc. dressed only eight men including goaltender Roger Bes- sette and led the Miners 3-1 at the end of the second period. The Min- ers came through late in the third frame to win 5-3.
Coach "Bucko” Tralnor. defense- man Gus Gustaveson and forward Elwood Ritchie never got past the Strait of Canso on account of car trouble. Forwards Buck Whltlock and Bob Gray did not make the trip. That left the Islanders with only defensemen Don MaoLaughlin and Larry Blackburn and forwards Claude Ruben. Orin Carver. Plnl Saindon. Vlp Palladino and Real Charlebois along with goalie Bes- seite. Guy Glgnac. who had no equipment. was tunable to dres un- til the third ,period.
This meant that the Islanders played the first two periods with only two men on the bench, Claude Robert never left the ice during the first 40 minutes and took only two short breathers in the third. The team was handled by Don MacLaughlin and lion certaiiily did an outstanding job. The players had to borrow sticks and socks in Glace Bay as their own sticks and stockings were in 'rrainor's car. lGignac. borrowed n complete hockey outfit and got in uniform in time for the third period. . Paul Saindon scored two goals 'for the Islanders and Orin Caiver one. Carver figured in all three goals.
